Tafsir: At-Tawbah 9:45

9:45
انما يستاذنك الذين لا يومنون بالله واليوم الاخر وارتابت قلوبهم فهم في ريبهم يترددون ٤٥
إِنَّمَا يَسْتَـْٔذِنُكَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ وَٱرْتَابَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ فَهُمْ فِى رَيْبِهِمْ يَتَرَدَّدُونَ ٤٥
إِنَّمَا
يَسۡتَـٔۡذِنُكَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
لَا
يُؤۡمِنُونَ
بِٱللَّهِ
وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ
ٱلۡأٓخِرِ
وَٱرۡتَابَتۡ
قُلُوبُهُمۡ
فَهُمۡ
فِي
رَيۡبِهِمۡ
يَتَرَدَّدُونَ
٤٥
No one would ask for exemption except those who have no faith in Allah or the Last Day, and whose hearts are in doubt, so they are torn by their doubts.

You are reading a tafsir for the group of verses 9:44 to 9:45

In the second (44) and third (45) verses given there was the difference between believers and hypocrites. Those who believe in Allah Ta` ala truly and staunchly do not pick an occasion like that only to seek desertion from Jihad just for the sake of love for their lives and wealth and go about asking the permission of their prophet to stay back. In fact, this is the behavior of only those who do not believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment (Akhirah), truly and correctly - and, as for Allah, He knows the God-fearing perfectly well.
